Bullet points:
• “I love it. I absolutely love it.” — GeneralsJoes.com
Atkins’ cover is awesome.
Trimpe and Whigham covers for ARAH?? Hope they both feature the classic logo!
Feister is the man on Origins covers. Hope they keep him on one of the other titles after Origins ends.
I was not expecting an Alpha Flight cover homage; I doubt anyone was.
